Cool.

It looks like Rick has put on the fuel cap and starting the base for the seat?

I have to say, yesturday was a pretty productive day. Noli, Coen put the fuel fill in. Bob did the railing and installed the rod holders. I was the base boy all day. Plus I skinned out the throttle pod after it was gelcoated.
Going in around 9:00 to get the base layed up and put a few layers on the shifter pod.

Again alot of custom parts being made. Nice job !! I like the console platform how will it go into the boat ? Dont see any flanges on the bottom. I would glass it down to the floor then gelcoat it along with the floor so it looks like part of the floor. Good or bad just a thought.

Sean, came across these for when you want your kid out of the sun or even take the family camping aboard your boat.

Thanks...not sure how it will be mounted to the bottom, gonna ask Rick that tomorrow, maybe glass it to the floor from the inside, then a little gel coat around the outer edge to blend it in? The base really gives you some extra room as well, so the batteries will fit nicely in there, we are also putting a bulkhead in the console to mount the trim pumps, so we are gettig that weight out of the back

I also have pics of the seats, just need to upload them tonight off the camera.

Mike, After it's glassed, I will sit the base on formica and glass a flange on the inside for a nice clean look.
I'm going into the shop in alittle while to get some more glass on the shifter pod mold. This way tomorrow, I can start on the other half of the mold.

Yeah, nice having the little guy around. He can be quite amusing. Almost 2:30 and we just finished breakfast. Kristian and I will be doing the shop, then it's off to the mall to get him a few things.

Sean, buckets came out sweeeeet. Finally made it to the shop and got home in time for kickoff. One side of the pod mold is done. That saved 2 days during the week ;)

The other half of the mold will be sprayed up this morning, and I'm going to get the inside if the base glassed.

looks awesome Rick/Sean!

looks like the base will be ready to install soon.

I like the way that came out.

Why is there a piece of cardboard being measured? is that to create a template for the bottom part?
